ION Clean Energy – a Colorado company – is working on an exciting iteration on a tried-and-true carbon capture pace: “post-combustion solvent” carbon capture. This means capturing the carbon dioxide after the fuel is burned, with a liquid.
In the latest ClearPath video, Rich Powell explains how ION Clean Energy’s first commercial project could capture more than 4 million tons of carbon emissions each year, the equivalent of taking nearly a million cars off the road. He also describes how the Colorado start-up partnered with the Department of Energy to test and refine its “secret sauce.”
ION is demonstrating that there’s an increasing number of ways to capture carbon, while decreasing costs. We think that’s a winning recipe! Watch ClearPath’s latest whiteboard video on how ION Clean Energy is on a path to net-zero.
